The discovery of the baryonic states $P_c^+(4380)$ and $P_c^+(4450)$ by the LHCb collaboration has evoked a lot of theoretical interest. These states have the minimal quark content $c \bar{c} u u d$. Interpreted as hidden charm…
Exclusive electroproduction of a K or K* meson on the nucleon can give a Theta+ pentaquark in the final state. This reaction offers an opportunity to investigate the structure of pentaquark baryons at parton level. We discuss the…
We systematically study the mass spectra of $S$-wave singly-heavy tetraquark states $Qq\bar{q}\bar{q}$ ($Q=c,b$; $q=u,d,s$) in a mass splitting model. We adopt the assumption that the $X(4140)$ is the lowest $J^{PC}=1^{++}$…
The $\Theta^+$ pentaquark baryon was searched for via the $\pi^-p\to K^-X$ reaction in a missing-mass resolution of 1.4 MeV/$c^2$(FWHM) at J-PARC. $\pi^-$ meson beams were incident on the liquid hydrogen target with the beam momentum of…
Motivated by the recent discovery of the exotic S=+1 narrow baryon resonance Theta^+ at 1540 MeV, with quark content {uudd sbar}, we conjecture the existence of its anti-charmed analogue Theta_c, with quark content {uudd cbar}, and compute…
The observation of the two states $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4445)$ [Phys.Rev.Lett. 115 (2015) 072001] solids the existence of the pentaquark state in Nature. In this work, we study the spectrum of the pentaquark states including one or two heavy…
Hidden-charm pentaquarks are analysed in Group Theory in the baryon-meson molecule picture within the framework of the constituent quark model. The investigation of strong decays of pentaquark resonances reveals that pentaquark states of…
Using the bound state version of the topological soliton model for the baryons we show that the existence of a bound (or quasi-bound) $\bar D$-soliton state leads to the possibility of having hidden charm pentaquarks with quantum numbers…
We present a consistent color-flavor-spin-orbital wave function for a positive parity Theta^+ that naturally explains the observed narrowness of the state. The wave function is totally symmetric in its flavor-spin part and totally…
With the heavy quark symmetry and spin rearrangement scheme, we study the strong decay behavior of the hidden-charm pentaquark states with $J^P={\frac{3}{2}}^{\pm}, {\frac{5}{2}}^{\pm}$ assuming they are molecular candidates composed of…
Using the SU(3) flavor symmetry, we construct the chiral Lagrangians for the light and heavy pentaquarks. The correction from the nonzero quark is taken into account perturbatively. We derive the Gell-Mann$-$Okubo type relations for various…
We thoroughly compare the bound state and rigid rotator approaches to three--flavored chiral solitons. We establish that these two approaches yield identical results for the baryon spectrum and kaon--nucleon $S$--matrix in the limit that…
In the paper, we study the production of pentaquark $\bar{c}q qqq$ from singly bottom baryon. The tensor representations of pentaquark $\bar{c}q qqq$ are completed at first. Under the light quark symmetry analysis, we decompose the singly…
In the framework of an extended chromomagnetic model, we systematically study the mass spectrum of the $S$-wave $qQ\bar{Q}\bar{Q}$ tetraquarks. Their mass spectra are mainly determined by the color interaction. For the $qc\bar{c}\bar{c}$,…
Multiquark resonances are undoubtedly experimentally observed. The number of states and the amount of details on their properties has been growing over the years. It is very recent the discovery of two pentaquarks and the confirmation of…
The 1/N_c expansion for negative-parity heavy pentaquarks is developed using the formalism introduced for excited baryons in large N_c. Relations are found between the mass splittings of these pentaquarks and those of nonexotic baryons.
The relativistic five-quark equations are found in the framework of the dispersion relation technique. The five-quark amplitudes for the low-lying pentaquarks including the u,d,s-quarks are calculated. The poles of these amplitudes…
Hadronic states composed of multi-quark flavors may exist in reality since they are not prohibited by QCD. Compact four quark systems of color singlet are classified as tetraquarks. To understand the properties of these states, more…
Strange hidden-charm pentaquark states have been systematically investigated within a diquark-triquark model. Through a Gaussian expansion method, masses of some diquarks, triquarks and strange hidden-charmed pentaquark states from S-wave…
We look for the existence of stable (by strong interactions) tetraquarks, mesons containing two heavy antiquarks and two light quarks, specifically a $|{\bar b}{\bar b}qq\rangle$ state. This state is viewed as two $|{\bar b}q\rangle $…
